Abstract
This paper presents a simple approach to selectively synthesize the ZnO nanowires between interdigitated electrodes by integrating the hydrothermal method with the photolithography process. The printed circuit board (PCB) was adopted as the substrate. Interdigitated electrodes were fabricated by etching the copper foil of PCB. Then, both the positive and negative photoresists were used to control the growth of nanowires through lift-off concept. No costly materials and expensive apparatuses are required. Biotin–streptavidin reaction was used as an example to examine this proposed device. When histidine-tagged biotin was added and the reaction of biotin–streptavidin was completed, the distinguishable I-V curves were detected, respectively. The experimental results reveal that this proposed device is sensitive.
